Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Acts 10:9-18

9-18 The prejudices of Peter against the Gentiles, would have prevented his going to Cornelius, unless the Lord had prepared him for this service. To tell a Jew that God had directed those animals to be reckoned clean which were hitherto deemed unclean, was in effect saying, that the law of Moses was done away. Peter was soon made to know the meaning of it. God knows what services are before us, and how to prepare us; and we know the meaning of what he has taught us, when we find what occasion... read more

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - Acts 10:1-99

Acts 10 THE FIRST THING in the chapter is the angelic ministry to Cornelius by which he is directed to send to Joppa and call Peter. No difficulty arose here, for Cornelius immediately did as he was told. The angel, you notice, did not cut a rather lengthy story short by himself telling the message to Cornelius. The message of grace can only be rightly told by a man who is himself a subject of grace. So Peter must be called. God had respect to the prayers and alms of Cornelius, since they... read more

The vision of Peter: v. 9. On the morrow, as they went on their journey, and drew nigh unto the city, Peter went up upon the housetop to pray about the sixth hour; v. 10. and he became very hungry, and would have eaten; but while they made ready, he fell in to a trance, v. 11. and saw heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending unto him, as it had been a great sheet knit at the four corners, and let down to the earth, v. 12. wherein were all manner of four-footed beasts of the... read more

§ II. Before the message reaches Peter, God commands him, in a symbolical manner, during a trance, not to consider any thing as unclean which He has cleansed. The messengers of Cornelius arrive immediately afterwards, and communicate his invitation to PeterActs 10:9-23 a9 [But] On the morrow [next day], as they [those]7 went on their journey, and drew nigh unto the city, Peter went up upon the housetop to pray about the sixth hour: 10And he became very [om. very] hungry, and would have... read more

Acts WHAT GOD HATH CLEANSED Act_10:1 - Act_10:20 . The Church was at first in appearance only a Jewish sect; but the great stride is now to be taken which carries it over the border into the Gentile world, and begins its universal aspect. If we consider the magnitude of the change, and the difficulties of training and prejudice which it had to encounter in the Church itself, we shall not wonder at the abundance of supernatural occurrences which attended it. Without some such impulse, it is... read more

Guidance for Men Who Pray Acts 10:1-16 At this point the Church took a new departure, and the gospel broke over the walls of Jewish exclusiveness and was preached for the first time to pure-blooded Gentiles. Caesarea, built by the great Herod, was practically a Roman city, and the official seat of the Roman government in Judea. Cornelius was an officer of high rank, and it would seem naturally of noble character. He had no sympathy with the religious fables and sensuous indulgence of his... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Acts 10:1-48

The story of Cornelius is remarkable. In himself, as Luke tells us, he was "a devout man, and one that feared God with all his house, who gave much alms to the people, and prayed to God alway." This man received a direct communication in an open vision. While God was thus drawing Cornelius toward the Evangel, He was preparing the messenger to declare that Evangel. Peter was astonished, and made his astonishment known, but yielded ready obedience to the prompting of the Spirit, and came to the... read more

Wells of Living Water Commentary - Acts 10:1-41

The Story of Cornelius Acts 10:1-41 INTRODUCTORY WORDS Before the Lord Jesus went up into Heaven, He gave command to the Apostles to disciple all nations, beginning at Jerusalem. In view of the far-flung purpose of God to reach the Gentiles, Saul had been recently saved and commissioned. However, while Saul was in preparation of this larger work, God was turning in mercy toward a people who knew Him not. It is for this reason, that our interest deepens as we come to the story of Cornelius, a... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Acts 10:1-48

Peter and Cornelius (9:43-10:48). It is difficult for us to appreciate the huge step that is now about to be described. To us it may all seem like a great fuss about nothing. But it was bringing about a total change in the way that Christian Jews would see Gentiles. It was doing nothing less than opening the Gentile world to the possibility of their becoming Christians without being circumcised and having to observe all the ritual regulations of the Jews. For centuries the Jews had seen... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Acts 10:10-12

‘And he became hungry, and desired to eat. But while they made ready, he fell into a trance, and he sees the heaven opened, and a certain container descending, as it were like a great sheet, let down by four corners on the earth, in which were all manner of fourfooted beasts and creeping things of the earth and birds of the heaven.’ And feeling hungry he called for something to eat. This hunger may have been the result of the time he spent in prayer, and may therefore point to how long he had... read more
